Siddha Medicine and Cultural Therapy Centre by Shivika P
MSc in Interior Design
Shivika P’s Siddha Retreat and Cultural Therapy Centre is the answer to everyone’s frantic, non-stop modern-life meltdown. It’s as if someone took all the wild, ancient energy from Siddha medicine and the deep roots of Tamil vibes, mixed them together, and said, “Take it easy.” The entire place riffs on the JDDA 2025 theme—“Pause – Prioritise A Unique Sense of Ease”—by making you slow down so naturally you’d swear you were born to do it.
The experience isn’t just “come here and breathe deeply.” It dives headfirst into herbal fixes, old-school Tamil music, meditative dance, arts and crafts, and traditional rituals that don’t feel like a history lesson. It’s therapy—emotional, physical, whatever kind of stress monster you brought with you—wrapped up in pristine culture.
Nature’s the MVP. Every inch is soaked in earthy tones, breezy courtyards, open verandahs you’ll want to lounge on forever—it smudges the line between indoors and outdoors until you’re not sure where the Centre ends and the wild begins. You might actually pause and feel your own heartbeat for once.
This isn’t just some Insta-friendly “wellness escape.” It’s a sanctuary, a living, breathing chunk of tradition. You’re not walking through a museum—you’re right in the center of heritage that you can taste, touch, and lose yourself in. This place executes it flawlessly: a legit pause button on life, ancient and grounded and somehow totally fresh.
